What is your #1 method to settle down your panic attack/anxiety
I would love to hear your number one method to keep your panic/anxiety in check.
If you don't have any methods, and this is something you struggle with, feel free to look at other replies to get an idea, and post one way you are willing to try, for the benefit under the panic attack/ anxiety.
My number one way in solving my panic attacks when they are full force and happening is the ICE trick, putting an ice cube on the back of my neck right at the base usually brings me back to ground level in about 30 seconds to 1 minute.

I say Psalms 42:5 —
Why, my soul, are you so dejected?
Why are you such turmoil?
Give it to God, for I still praise Him,
my Savior and my God.
**here’s some context and why it helps so much.
The Psalmist, by this point, is talking to themselves. You know, that dialogue that we do sometimes… Well, the author is saying to themselves “why are you so upset right now?!”
Then they command themselves to give it to God. It’s not an option. It’s non-negotiable. Give it to God! Because…
I still praise Him. It’s hard to have an anxious heart if your grateful! So give some gratitude to God! It helps my anxiety almost immediately!
I hope this helps my fellow Christians!
I try to ask myself what I really want, when my anxiety is overwhelming. The trigger may be obvious, but the solution can seem unattainable in the moment. Typically there is a need that is being addressed, and my mind will not avoid it any more.
